    I just wanted to report that that Rachel Brice DVD I did yesterday messed up my back a little bit. I guess I worked it too hard, and now my old back injury is acting up... It hasn't been really bad since January, so I'm mostly staying off the computer, and laying around the house until it feels better... Gotta get to that new chiropractor soon!

    Yesterday I tried a new spinning class that I hadn't done before! I normally spin every Friday for a 1/2 hour. Yesterday at a different gym that I go to, I tried a full hour class with a differenct instructor, so I think I am counting that!! Wow, it was really hard!! So much harder than the 1/2 hour class!!

    Fruits/veggies yesterday was not as great!! Back to 4! I feel like it was a victory though, I purposefully bought veggies at the store, and I made that asparagus recipe that I talked about! You know I think that chocolate should be considered a veggie right, so the fact that I made asparagus, something that I have NEVER done in this house, is HUGE!! My husband even liked it, and said he would eat it again!! YEAH!! I gotta say, it had some parmesan cheese on it, and some ranch dressing and was baked, but it was still asparagus! Baby steps!! Maybe someday the thought of a veggie tray won't totally gross me out!

    Congrats to all of you that get all those servings in everyday!! Very inspirational to me! This challenge has definitely made me think about my veggies, and think ahead! That's why I love it!
